By Ryan Maquiñana - Terms for the Feb. 25 proposed matchup between WBO junior lightweight champ Adrien Broner (22-0, 18 KOs) and Eloy Perez (23-0-2, 7 KOs) have been finalized.
The fight, Broner’s first title defense, will take place on the Devon Alexander-Marcos Maidana undercard in St. Louis.
Originally, Puerto Rico’s Roman Martinez—the man who once possessed the belt—was offered the first shot at Broner, but when he declined, Team Perez stepped in as a willing challenger.
Perez?share of the purse is to be somewhere in the neighborhood of $100,000. A number for Broner could not be determined as of the time of this report, but will likely be higher since he will be coming in as the champion. [Click Here To Read More]
